Waingro are part of a growing, excellent scene of psychedelic rock coming out of Vancouver lately. They're just a three-piece, but they make some truly heavy music. While not a stoner-metal act per se, Waingro are in the area. Their music is much too fast to be really considered stoner-metal, and they pack in a lot of riffing and some hardcore punch into their music. The band is more in line with what the Melvins do: super heavy riffing with sludgy portions, but also drawing influences from a bunch of different types of metal. The vocalist is a real leather-throated hardcore punk singer though. The entire album clocks in just over 30 minutes and is a very satisfying listen. If you like Motorhead or fellow BC sludge-makers Bison, Waingro is probably up your alley.
